Yes it does. There are certainly pictures of this place in flickr. To answer your question, it is in Kaohsiung.

Yeah, but they've all got labels and tags in oriental characters!

It's spring break here where I work, so there's been no Chinese students in the lab. to translate for me. ;)

This seems like the same place:

Labelled variously as "Old City of Fongshan" and "Old City of Zuoying".

I can barely read Chinese so when I searched for this place I did it in English too. I remember on one of my previous WAINs you used one of your students to read the signs of the buildings. Nothing wrong with using your resources.

That would be the place. It is located in the Zuoying district of Kaohsiung. Zuoying was formerly known as Old Fongshan but when you asked Fongshan I knew you meant Fongshan City which is not the same place as Zuoying. Hence, my hint with the "half right" response.

Anyways, over to you!

Good thing you did. I wouldn't have seen it without Tom's heads-up.

Here's a very heavy crop of a very mediocre photograph. Hopefully I can find a corroborating picture before someone gets it, but I don't think it will be too tough.
